The Remaster 01 would have been amazing if the they used a manual wind movement so that the thickness would fit the case diameter. I mean even a blind person could tell you that due to its proportions the watch lacks refinement.

The Remaster 02 case is interesting but just too big. Again a lack of attention to detail and refinement.

To me it looks like AP watch designers who are responsible for the Remaster line are definitely not watch persons/ they lack the feeling for something like that.

I mean just look at VC and their historique collection and you know how it should be done.

Tyrese Halliburton was just wearing a Cartier Bamboo

Kuzma, DBook and many other plays own Cartier Crashes

Plenty of NBA players will go for this look lol

I’m not interested in it.
Will look forward to trying one on someday but I doubt it’s something I want and I’m a sucker for every watch they make.

I highly doubt so. AP seems to be on some roll to make big dress watches, as if they believe they are relevant enough to change fashion trends. Why don't they take a look at IWC sales for a moment, they would realize big dress watches have not been a thing for quite some time. For that kind of money, I would buy an independent dress watch any day of the week before this. The new PF Toric for similar money looks so much better from top to bottom next to this AP, it is not even funny.

It was a special order from a company an only 7 were made.
I believe they sell for about 50x the typical AP dress watch from this era now.
So some body appreciates the design.

I definitely do. Tried on the display piece and fell in love. But was told chances of allocation almost nil

What's rose auctions ?

Bearxj86 · 21 October 2024, 12:32 AM

I just picked it up. Tales of its size are overblown. It wears well on my 6.75 inch wrist and 6 foot 1 , 210 lb frame. Probably smaller than a 41mm 15510

Looks really nice on you. Great convo piece. You know you are the only person wearing that walking into a room unlike a RO

Bach609 · 21 October 2024, 03:15 AM

It looks really cool ! Congrats for getting it !!

jyaki · 21 October 2024, 04:05 AM

Kind of looks like a Tesla Cybertruck, lol. But in all honesty, what's the point when it's so limited that it's unobtainium for most of us? If AP really wants to promote watches other than the Royal Oak, they should've made this more available, IMHO.

ts3 · 21 October 2024, 04:12 AM

Looking good, congrats.

Congrats and thanks for sharing! Can’t wait to see one
